NH poll workers see long lines near election close

Voting hours haven't been extended

New Hampshire poll workers are grappling with long lines as polling places near closing time.

Deputy Attorney General Anne Rice says it will be up to local moderators to decide where and when to draw the line. She says voting hours haven't been extended.

People who are in line when polls close must be allowed to vote. But Rice says local officials will decide whether, for example, someone driving into a polling place parking lot is considered to be in line.

Rice says she is aware of long lines in Nashua, Salem, Manchester and Henniker. She says it's just another indication of how significant voters believe this election is.

Other than the lines, Rice says there have been no significant conflicts or complaints arising out of Tuesday's election.
